==== Relic Hunter Season 9 has begun! ====
+
==== The Great Winter Hunt is Coming to an End ====
The new Relic Hunter season brings with it exciting updates to Community Maps, important mobile interface improvements, changes to Elite and Slayer maps, and unique seasonal rewards.
+
Congratulations MouseHunters, thanks to your valiant efforts, the Frost King's forces are retreating!
  
So gather your relics, assemble your treasure hunting team, and prepare for adventure!
+
After the relentless barrage of Hailstones from the brave hunters of Gnawnia, the Frost King's icy powers are waning and the Great Winter Taiga is beginning to thaw.
  
==== Community Map Listing Updates ====
+
Soon all the snow will be gone and the Frost King and his forces will go into hiding for another year.
You can now search, filter, and sort treasure maps by their name, number of mice caught, and number of hunters on the map on both the browser and mobile app.
 
  
There's also a handy menu link to go straight to the publicly listed Community Maps section.
 
  
Now it's even easier to find and join community maps of every shape and size!

==== Interface Improvements ====
+
The following changes have happened in the Taiga:
===== Mobile Improvements =====
+
*Mice are no longer dropping Golem Parts or Pecan Pecorino
We've made even more mobile interface improvements from last year that will make mapping on mobile even smoother, more feature-rich, and more consistent with the browser experience.
+
*Mice in Cinnamon Hill are no longer dropping Compressed Cinnamon
  
These new additions to mobile are too numerous to list but here are some key changes:
+
The following things will remain the same '''until January 16''' when the event shuts down completely:
*Navigation tabs have been added to make treasure mapping more seamless
+
*Golems can still be built and sent out
*Caught mice are now grouped by the hunter who caught them
+
*Cinnamon can still power the Forges in the Golem Part Workshop
*Inviting friends to your map has helpful filtering and sorting improvements
+
*Hailstones can still be fired at the Ice Fortress</div>
  
<div style="text-align: center; border: 0.083em solid; border-radius: 0.416em; padding: 0.083em; margin: 1em 0">
 
For an exhaustive list of all the changes to the mobile map UI, check out today's patch notes!

==== Chrome Slayer Treasure Maps ====

<div style="text-align: left; border: 0.083em solid; border-radius: 0.416em; padding: 0.416em"><div style="text-align: center; font-size: 115%;">'''The Great Winter Hunt will end completely on'''<br>'''Tuesday, January 16, 2024'''</div>
Introducing for the first time: Elite Chrome Slayer Treasure Chests!
 
  
These prestigious treasure chests are awarded upon completion of an Elite Chrome Slayer Treasure Map, a challenge for only the bravest of hunters Archduke/Archduchess and above!
+
Hunters can continue to send out Snow Golems until the event ends completely.
  
===== Slayer and Chrome Auras =====
+
After the event ends, the following items will melt away and be '''removed from your inventory''':
When opening any Chrome Slayer Treasure Chest, both Chrome and Slayer auras are rewarded!
+
*Golem Parts
 +
*Animated Snow
 +
*Reinforced Ice Shards
 +
*Compressed Cinnamon
 +
*Hailstones
 +
*Firework Sugar Cookies
 +
*Magical Holiday Scarf
 +
*Golem Gift Box
  
===== Chrome Slayer Scroll Case Exchange =====
+
<div style="text-align: center;>'''Make sure to use up all of these resources before January 16!'''</div></div>
Exchange your regular Slayer Scroll Case along with 2 Rare Map Dust and 100 Ancient Relics for a Chrome Slayer Scroll Case at the King's Cart.
 
  
Chrome Slayer Scroll Cases always open to reveal a map with difficulty that matches your hunter title.
+
==== Last Chance for Limited Time Bundles ====
 +
These limited time bundles will be gone from the Premium Shop on Tuesday, January 16 so pick them up while you still can!
  
==== Elite and Slayer Map Updates ====
 
Existing Elite treasure maps have been rebalanced to remove some unfair mice, add mice that were missing, and improve treasure chest rewards.
 
  
In addition to this, all Elite treasure chests (Slayer, Chrome Slayer, and Relic Hunter) now reward an additional item from a special exclusive reward list. Any Elite treasure map completed from this point forward will reward you with the improved treasure chest.

''{{date|2|November|2021}}''
 
 
'''Halloween is ending soon in the Kingdom of Gnawnia!'''<br>
 
Brew as much Evil Extract as you can before the Greenwood is gone!
 
 
<blockquote>
 
 
==== The Magic of the Cauldrons is Coming to an End ====
 
The brave hunters of Gnawnia have been so successful in capturing Baba Gaga and her evil minions that they've managed to completely rid the Gloomy Greenwood of all its foul ingredients! Now that the wicked wood witch is on the run, the magic that keeps her cauldrons brewing is starting to fade away and her hut, along with her minions, will soon leave that dark and dreary forest.
 
 
There are '''two stages to the shutdown''' of the Boiling Cauldron event to help hunters to maximize their event rewards. The details of the two stages are outlined below.
 
 
==== November 2 to November 9, 2021 ====
 
<center>'''Brew as much Evil Extract as you can during this week!'''</center>
 
 
As of November 2, 2021, all the mice in the Gloomy Greenwood '''will no longer drop any ingredients including Mousedrake Root'''.
 
 
Any ingredients that you've already collected can still be brewed and '''everything else will remain unchanged'''.
 
 
==== November 9 to November 16, 2021 ====
 
<center>'''Spend all your Evil Extract before this week is over!'''</center>
 
 
As of November 9, 2021, the '''cauldrons will no longer brew while you hunt'''!
 
 
You can still use '''Reactive Reagent''' to finish brewing any ingredients you have left but the cauldrons will not work without it.
 
 
You can also choose to cancel your current brews and queues in order to get your ingredients back which you can spend in the Charm Shoppe or the Apothecary (General Store).

==== After November 16, 2021 ====
 
<center>'''Make sure to brew it all and spend it all before November 16!'''</center>
 
 
On November 16, 2021, the Gloomy Greenwood location will disappear! Any hunters still in the Greenwood will be escorted to the Town of Gnawnia by the King's Guards.
 
 
At this point, '''the following ingredients will be removed from your inventory''':
 
 
*Pungent Pumpkin
 
*Marshmarrow
 
*Ghost Pepper
 
*AvocAAAAHdo
 
*Mousedrake Root
